Because of the price explosion in precious metals, the production of counterfeit gold has developed into a booming industry. Lately, more and more counterfeit coin and bullion have surfaced. This has led to uncertainty in the market and many investors have become leery. Institutional and private investors want to be certain that they do not invest their assets in counterfeit. With FISCHER measuring instruments, you will find any irregularity – quickly, reliably and non-destructively.
Destructive methods for testing lead to a loss of product or value. With our instrument lines SIGMASCOPE GOLD and FISCHERSCOPE X-RAY, FISCHER offers two non-destructive methods that complement each other perfectly when validating precious metal coin or bullion quickly and accurately.
The SIGMASCOPE GOLD detects counterfeit precious metal bullion and coin via electrical conductivity. They utilise the physical fact that various alloys and fine gold differ in their conductivity.
